B. Variscite : AlPO4·2H2O
C. Gibbsite : Al2O3·3H2O
D. Hematite : FeOOH
Answer: Option D
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Strengite is a relatively rare iron phosphate mineral with the formula FePO4·2H2O.Variscite is a hydrated aluminum phosphate mineral with the formula AlPO4·2H2O. it is a relatively rare phosphate mineral.
Gibbsite is one of the mineral forms of aluminium hydroxide with the chemical formula Al2O3·3H2O. It is an important ore of aluminium.
